Killer Instinct Receiving a C-C-C-Comic Book Adaptation through Dynamite Entertainment

Now that Killer Instinct Season 3 has finished off it’s narrative offerings with the Shadow Lords update, developer Iron Galaxy has looked to new mediums to continue the game’s lore. Comic book publisher Dynamite Entertainment has powered up its shadow meter and is ready to take on the KI cast within the pages of its books.

Set to arrive in late 2017, very little has been released on this partnership. Nick Barrucci, CEO of Dynamite, had this to say

“As we continue to expand our line of video game tie-in titles, Killer Instinct is a perfect choice with great characters to explore and expand upon. The comics will be the beginning of a publishing program, which we will announce more details around soon!”

The comic publisher has had lots of experience with licensed series such as Turok, Terminator, and Evil Dead/Army of Darkness. Hopefully this will mean good things for any KI character that finds themselves spouting word balloons unless history repeats itself.
